Ha!! I looks as if we think alike! Yeah, that would be awesome. There's a couple of shows that I enjoy watching and one of my favorites is of Anthony Bourdain, traveling around the World, meeting people, drinking and eating. So many cool places to see, so much great food to eat in our World!!

Yeah, Bourdain's show is one of the finest shows on that subject.

Like you said: So many places to see, so much great food out there.
And all the new people to meet is yet another bonus of that job:)

Yes, I agree Bourdain has a great job!

I ended up doing that for 20 years. When it was good it was very good and when it was bad it was horrible. In the 1970s when the politically correct crowd was taking over the media the emasculation of men began. The word was that there was no such thing as a 'macho man'.

Walking around on I-beams a couple of hundred feet in the air on a beautiful spring day with your bridge belt and spud wrenches strapped around you ..... the operator swinging another piece ..... climbing columns .... that made a man feel like a man. I'm glad I got out of it when I did but I'm also glad that I did it for the time that I did.

I agree JimmyHAD I cant imagine any job in the world other than being an Ironworker. I've had family that are now retired and I always looked up to them. The day I was accepted into my local apprenticeship was that proudest day of my life. in my opinion people saying "your one of those crazy guys" and "I could never do that" make me feel great and fill me with pride.
